FourTran: Four-wheeled Ground Robot

This repository contains the code for our ground robot FourTran. The robot would be actuated using four brushed DC motors and contains omni-wheels which enable it to perform motions like sway and differential turning.

The main purpose of the robot is to act as a testing robot for our vision and controls algorithms which we later hope to implement on our underwater vehicle.
